We already had about 800 gallons in the pool to test it for leaks, make sure it was level, smooth the lining, etc. This is a 2000 gallon tanker truck. We'll need 3 tanker loads to fill the pool!
They hooked up the fire hose and blasted it into the pool. It took less than 10 minutes to empty the truck.
As you can see in the background, we didn't even have the equipment boxes out of the way before Dan and Brian were in the pool. It was pretty darn chilly, but they did have a purpose for getting in.
We opted for a salt water filtration system. Using this method makes pool maintenance much easier because there are no chemicals to mess with. The salt naturally keeps the water clean and clear - just like the ocean and our tears. It's at a super low level, so unless you take a big gulp, you'll never know it's there. They dumped 150 pounds of salt into the pool and got in to mix the salt into the water. Now we just need to tidy up around the pool area and we'll call this project finished!
